The ordinary biscuit made with cream of
tartar, or any of the common brands of bak-
ing powder, will, when cold, be dry and
tasteless. The ideal biscuit made with Prof
Horsford's Bread Preparation, WILL when
cold, be moist, sweet and delicious Cream
OF tartar leaves tartrate of potash in the
bread, which is of no value to the system,
often acts as an irritant, and certainly, there
fore cannot be healthful. Prof. Horsford's
Bread Preparation leaves phosphate in the
bread which has been proved by scientists to
be highly nutritious. Identically the same
phosphates are contained in meat, fish, corn,
rice, wheat and otner cereals. These phos-
pilates exert salutary and health giving in
fuence upon the animal economy, and supply
that for which there is a constant demand in
the human system. The reverse of all this
is true as regards cream of tartar, and all
baking powders made of cream of tartar /:
hence this true comparison of the nature of
llorsford's Bread Preparation and the results
of its use, with those of cream of tartar,
should convince the most incredulous of the
value of the Bread Preparation, and the
utter uselessness of cream of tartar as a
dietetic preparation.

This car was out of doors from 8 80 A. M

"Some time ago my son was taken sick
with serious lung difficulty, which threat
ened to end in quick consumption. We
summoned our family physician, who attend
ed him faithfully for four weeks, during
which time he gradually grew weaker. Be-
coming very mnch alarmed about himself, and
being satisfied that he was growing worse all

This talk about protecting the pickerel by
a close time or otherwise seems ridiculous.
1t is we'll known that this fish is one of the
most ravenous of the finny tribe that swims
and before he comes to maturity eats many
times his own weight in valuable TODD fish.
1t was only the other day that Mr.. Hiram
Robinson of Sebec village, fishing with hook
and line near the mouth of Bear Brook on
the north side of the lake, caught pickerel.
Seeing what appeared to be the extremity of
fish's tail in its mouth, he drew from its
stomach the partially digested body of land
locked salmon 10 inches long which must
have weighed quite | 4 pounds when taken in.
After the removal, the pickerel weighed 81
pounds.

tOhicaoo Tribune


A bill has been introduced In the
HOUSE Of Representative for an in
crease Of the naval establishment which
authorizes the construction Of two steel
cruisers Of 400 tons displacement; i've
steel gunboats Of LOO tons displsce-
ment, and six cruising steel torpedo
boats, the latter 20 have maximum
speed, with the necessary armament and
stores for sea service, OF no ieas than
twenty knots an hour for six consecu-
tive hours. The bill appfopriates
q, 800. GOO for this purpose.
In the scheme Of the new navy there
are four monitors or ironclads awaiting
completion which were commeRced BY
ex Secretary Robson, and for vhieh
Congress has made appropriations.
They are the Puritan, AmphitFite, and
Terror on the Atlantic coast and the
Mouadnock at San Francisco. These
are fast nearing CONT letion. Under the
Roach contracts, there are three unarm-
cred cruisers, the Chicago, Boston, and
Atlanta, and the dispatch Dolphin.
The Atlanta aud Dolphin are already In
the service, the latter Notwithstanding
Secretary Whitney's attempt 10 i'm
pnnge the hoaesty Of her builder. The
two others are nearly ready. In add
ton 30 these, Secretary Whitney has
been authorized TO build Eve more. three
Of them otter models made BY the Ma
val Advisory Board, the fourth after the
design of steel cruiser lately built for
japan, and tbs fifth after British
model, which IL expected 10 carry as
heavy guns az any vessel in the world
and oatsail them all.
This. Of course, remains to be seen.
should il be acc 1mplished it would only
prove that We have one vessel capable
OF coping with the heavy vessels Of the
English navy. The new vessels cen
templated by the House bill, added to
those already provided for, would make
quite q respectable navy on paper; but
would the array Of unaFmored eFuis-
ere and steel Runboats be OF any ac-
eeunt In q contest with heavy ironclad
ships2 Being eruisers,ws presume that
they are intended in case Of war with
England, for instance, TO cruise after
the British commercial marine; but
suppose Ia the meantime the heavy iron
olads should come cruising after our
seaports and rich citieel what are We
going to do aboat it9 The approprin-
ton for the dynamite gun cru ser was q
wise one, always assuming that the pneu-
matte dynamite gun will work sneoess-
fully; but, apart from this and the tor
redo boats, IL does not appear that the
new navy will accom- lish much IN the
way Of coast defense, which is our weak
spot. There is scarcely q vessel yet
provided for BY Congress which In
speed or armament can cope with the
navies Of foreign powers. For what
purpose are they ordersdI
